Specifically, he claimed, the weapons were prepared to "harm or assassinate" the country's leader, Gen Prayut, he claimed. Mr Wuthipong is believed to be holed up in an "neighbouring country", known to be Cambodia although the police chief refused to name it. The charge came two months after a bitter attack on then-army commander Gen Prayut by Kotee in a radio broadcast. "An investigation found people in Kotee's group were preparing to use weapons to assassinate the government's leading figures including Gen Prayut," Pol Gen Chakthip said Sunday. Mr Weng insisted Mr Wuthipong had nothing to do with the UDD movement.
